Chapter 262 7 Evening in Progress 4
Of course it was time for lunch. Lin Han took Hua Jian directly to the largest inn in town for dinner. As soon as they found a seat there, Lin Han ordered three meat dishes, one vegetable dish and a soup.
About twenty minutes later, all the dishes were served. Lin Han joked with Hua Jian, "Hua Hua, this shouldn't be called lunch, it should be called midday."
Hua Jian calculated the time and replied to Lin Han seriously, "Yes, you're right. It's time for lunch."
The two of them started eating and drank their fill. After the meal, Lin Han took Hua Jian to other places for a walk. They didn't return to town until the evening.
When they returned to the town, night had fallen, covering the entire Taoyuan Town.
The town was very different from what it was during the day. Lanterns of various colors and shapes were hung on the branches and on both sides of the shops.
The lights shine through the lantern paper, reflecting rays of various colors, making the entire street colorful and beautiful.
Lin Han and the others did not go to have dinner. They had lunch late and were not hungry at the moment, so they did not return to town because they were hungry.
It was just because it was getting late and the lantern festival in town had started, so they wanted to come back to see the lanterns.
At night, the atmosphere of Qixi Festival becomes apparent, with couples everywhere.
Among them are couples, unmarried couples, and people who hit it off after a blind date but have only met a few times.
Husband and wife get along the most intimately, and they stand hand in hand openly and honestly.
Unmarried couples are less intimate. Some of the brave ones hold hands, while others are timid and only dare to walk side by side, not even touching hands.
As for those who are on blind dates, they are even more well-behaved. Their shoulders don’t even touch each other, let alone holding hands.
Logically speaking, the relationship between Lin Han and Hua Jian shown to the world is even worse than the above ones, which at least have been made clear in front of relatives and friends.
As for Hua Jian and the others, only a few people knew about their relationship, not even Hua Zhiyuan.
However, tonight is Chinese Valentine's Day, so there is a lot of room for maneuver.
The people around them don't know about them, so as long as they are brave enough, there is no hand that cannot be held.
The moment they arrived in the town and saw so many people, Hua Jian subconsciously wanted to shake off Lin Han's hand, but unfortunately, he failed.
Hua Jian had no choice but to quietly warn Lin Han: "Lin Han, let go. There are so many people here. It's not good to be seen holding hands."
Lin Han's hand was still tightly holding Hua Jian's, comforting him: "It's okay, Hua Hua, there are so many people on the street, look at how many people are holding hands.
Even if those people see us holding hands, they will just think we are a newlywed couple. Tonight is Chinese Valentine's Day.
Everyone is here to see the lanterns, no one will pay attention to us, and besides, I want to hold your hand."
Hua Jian was persuaded by Lin Han. He had indeed seen several couples holding hands, so he put his mind at ease and let Lin Han hold his hand.
Lin Han held Hua Jian's hand with one hand and carried a suitcase with the other, and the two of them walked leisurely on the colorful streets.
There was a bustling crowd around him. As he walked, Lin Han smelled a sweet scent. He followed the direction of the scent and saw a stall selling sugar-roasted chestnuts.
Hua Jian likes to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts, and Lin Han also likes to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts. He said to Hua Jian with a happy face: "Hua Hua, let's go over there and buy some sugar-roasted chestnuts."
Just like Lin Han would never refuse any request Hua Jian made, Hua Jian would never refuse any request Lin Han made as long as it was not "particularly excessive".
Hua Jian nodded, said okay, and was pulled away by Lin Han.
They came to the stall selling sugar-roasted chestnuts. Lin Han bought two servings of sugar-roasted chestnuts and put them all in the box.
Then he took out a sugar-roasted chestnut, squeezed it hard with one hand, and half of the shell fell off, leaving only the other half of the shell and the whole chestnut meat, which he handed to Hua Jian.
Lin Han: "Come on, Huahua, you can take it out and eat it directly."
Hua Jian: "Thank you, Lin Han."
Hua Jian did not refuse, nor did he say that he would do it himself, because he had said something similar before. Lin Han's expression was very sad at that time.
From then on, Hua Jian knew that if he didn't let Lin Han help him with these matters, Lin Han would be unhappy. Since Lin Han would be happy if he did these things for him, he should not say anything more.
Hua Jian took the chestnut, gently pinched the orange chestnut flesh with his hands, and took out the flesh easily without any effort.
Hua Jian looked at the whole chestnut flesh in amazement. Since he had been with Lin Han, he had eaten a lot of sugar-roasted chestnuts, but he rarely ate such whole flesh.
Every time, it either breaks into pieces or cracks and only half of it is left, with the other half stuck to the chestnut shell and I can't get it off no matter how hard I try.
Hua Jian couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Lin Han had some special technique for cracking chestnuts? Did he need to crack chestnuts with one hand?
Hua Jian thought about it and put the chestnut into his mouth. The burnt and sweet taste filled his mouth.
Because it is eaten while hot, it tastes great!
Hua Jian was just about to test whether his idea was correct when Lin Han placed a large chestnut that had already opened in front of him.
Hua Jian took the peeled chestnut again and took out the flesh just like before. It turned out to be another whole chestnut.
If it was just one, it could be considered a coincidence, but if two of them happened in a row, then it is no longer a coincidence.
Hua Jian chewed and swallowed the chestnut meat, and when Lin Han handed her the next chestnut.
He said, "Lin Han, you can eat this one yourself. Give me an unpeeled one. I want to peel one myself."
Taking Lin Han's mood into consideration, Hua Jian made it clear that he only wanted one and wanted to peel one and try it himself.
As expected, Lin Han didn't think much about it. He poured the chestnut meat in his hand into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it. Then he took out an unpeeled chestnut from the box and gave it to Hua Jian.
Hua Jian got the chestnuts and was so excited that he tried them. The chestnuts had been opened by the vendor, so Hua Jian didn't use much force at first.
But I couldn't pinch it open, and it didn't split into two halves like Lin Han did.
He thought to himself: Is it because I didn't use enough strength?
Hua Jian increased his strength and crushed the chestnut meat directly, but he still couldn't make it as good as the one Lin Han had prepared for him.
Hua Jian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: Okay, it seems that opening it with one hand is not the trick, so what is the trick?
Unable to figure it out, Hua Jian had no choice but to ask Lin Han: "Lin Han, how do you manage to keep every chestnut flesh intact after peeling? Do you have any tricks?"
Hua Jian's face was full of curiosity, and his eyes sparkled under the light.
In this situation, let alone telling him the secret of peeling chestnuts, I would even want to take his life.
However, Lin Han really couldn't tell Hua Jian, because he peeled the chestnuts using his own lightning ability.
He first released a slight electric current, causing the chestnut meat to completely separate from the chestnut shell, and then gently broke it apart. The working principle is probably similar to that of ultrasonic cleaning of stains on small objects.
